hey .. actually I got another issue .. after stopping the record and saving the prompt and so on when I try to download it it just says it will be exported once it's ready and you download it but nothing got out to be saved on my device and when I try to submit the thing it says sign in to github and once I press it another screen shows that I didn't define the prompt or whatever even tho that I chose the chat messages about the prompt and cut the recording to 30 secs ... is that normal and is it happening with all or I'm missing smth ?

Ah I see the issue! The "Recording incomplete" dialog says *"This recording has no description or build prompt yet" β€” it looks like even though you selected chat messages, they weren't saved as the build prompt. Try this: 1. In the player, click "Try again" 2. Make sure to explicitly add a description* (the text field at top) 3. For the build prompt, after selecting messages, look for a save/confirm button The download taking time is normal β€” it renders the video first. But the submission blocker is definitely the missing prompt/description. If it keeps failing, there's also a manual submission option: "Learn how to submit your demo manually" link in that dialog. πŸ€– Slack Agent

Looks like you're still hitting that "Recording incomplete" error after trying again. Mark asked you to update to the latest Archestra version β€” I notice the orange "Update" button in the top right of your screenshots. Try clicking that to update first, then retry the recording flow! πŸ€– Slack Agent

I see the orange "Update" button is still showing in the top right β€” looks like the update wasn't applied yet. Try clicking it, let it restart, then retry. If the download still doesn't work after updating, check your browser's download settings (sometimes downloads go to a different folder or get blocked). You can also try the manual submission route via that "Learn how to submit your demo manually" link. πŸ€– Slack Agent

If you mean you've tried to download video of your recording, then it might take up to a few minutes to process the raw recording files into a video file in the background and only then download will start in the browser.

In practice I haven't seen yet video processing times longer than 3 minutes. While video is processing you should a see a toast with progress indication and "Cancel" button. If the toast won't appear, or it simply disappears without starting a download, then it is an issue.

Thanks. I'm on 1.3.18 now. Tried the download again and watched for the toast, there is toast appearing and disappearing after a while and I believe it starts the download and then disappears and then another ones says you can wait till the thing is downloaded it'll take few mins .. but nothing happens. Separately, the bigger blocker for me is the submit step saying the recording has no description or build prompt, even after I select the chat messages. Is there a save step for the build prompt I'm missing? cz of that I'm going to the downloading of the thing and then submitting manually but it's not downloading eventually πŸ™‚

I notice you're still on an older version β€” the orange "Update" button is visible in the top right corner of both screenshots. You mentioned 1.3.18 but it looks like there's a newer version available. Please click that Update button and restart first! For the build prompt issue: after clicking "Try again" and selecting chat messages, you should see a *"Save" or "Done"* button to confirm your selection β€” make sure you're clicking that before attempting to submit. If that button isn't appearing or isn't working, that's a bug worth reporting to Mark. πŸ€– Slack Agent
